STOOD WHERE THE LABORING MEN
STAN

MINNEAPOLIs, Nov. 18th, 1887.
EDITOR RADvANCE:-As it is in or
der to speak on the 'question before
the house," and as that question seems
to be the hanging of the four anarcll-
lists, please allow me space to give ;
few of my own thoughts on the sub
ject.
In the first place, I fail to see how
anybody can be proven guilty of com
plicity i'll a murder when the murderer
is unknown and unconvicted. First
some body must be convicted of mur
der before he can have any accomplices.
In the second Place, the gibbet is n
relic of barbarism which ought to have
been consigned to oblivion centuries
ago. 1t is bad enough for man, in
the frenzy of passion, to take human
life; but, for the state to 60 deliberately
at work and strangle human beings,
shows depraved state of society,
which, to say the least, is a sad com
ment on our educational institutions,
whether social. political or religious.
am surprised that the daily press OF
Minneapolis and the country generally,
with all the historical facts Of the de-
moralizing effects of capital punish
ment before them, still clamor for IAN
eye Tor AL eye and Il tooth for a tooth. {"
Liberal and progressive minds all over
the world are outgrowing the barbar-
istn of the past, and it is pitiable to
think hat the press of the country is
such laggard in the great cause of
humanity. In this nineteenth century
lntelli gent people are Outgrowing the
idea that it is necessary that we help
the Almighty mete out vengeance to
his erring children.
In the Case of Gov. Oglesby, l con-
slder that u man who can take upon
himself the responsibility of commut-
ing the sentence of two men. because
they humbled themselves before him,
and deliberately hang four others no
more guilty. because they would not
thus fatter his vanity, is a character
more dangerous to the commonwealth,
than the men he hangs, and it ever
this country is destroyed, it will be by
men who cringe to monopoly and lack
manhood to be just.
Say what you will, these men who
were hung were in sympathy with the
labor movement of tie country, and
though idealists and rabid in their
views, they stood right where tens nf
thousands of labOring men will stand u
few years hence, if the powers that be-
10 not furnish us with men wise
enough to solve the labor problem, and
place the producer and consumer in
their proper spheres.
l would ask the press of the country
if the cause which has produced anar-
chists in the past will not produce an.
archists in the future. if not removed?
The cause which produces a "strike''
will produce other strikes, if not re-
moved. Then let Us remove the cause
before we try to suppress the effect.
Yours for perfect freedom of speech

form of government,

BOYCOTTED BY BREWERS.
a Chicago Firm Instructs Its Brokers to Re-
fuse to Buy Iowa and Kansas Barley.

CHICAGO, Dec. 1I-Considerable stir has been
caused here by the fact leaking ont that the
Kelley Brewing Company bad instructed it's
brokers to buy no barley grown in shipped
from the States OF Iowa or Kansas. The in
structions to the broker read as follows:
"Whsn purchasing barley for our account,
you must have guarantee from the seller that
the barley was not grown in either the States of
Iowa or Kansas, shipped from any town in
either of those States"
John p. Taylor. secretary of the Kelley COM
pany, is quoted to-day as saying mo, it is not
an attempt to punish those States for their pro-
hibition principles but if they won't buy our
beer, it is quite proper that We should not buy
their barley, isn't it2'
Mr.. Taylor said he issued the order because he
thought the Minnesota and Wisconsin barley
was better than the Iowa and Kansas barley, and
because, he added, 'there is need of our buy
ing from them if we can get as good or better
somewhere else.n
At other breweries it was said the matter up
to the present time, concerned only the Kelley
company. Louis Hueck, the millionaire malt
ster. said the deliberations of the Brewers AS
